One need only browse the product images on FibreGlast.com to recognize this wonder material's inherent value. Such representation projects the utilitarian products on a level like that of a special collections unit, the curator's blue-latex-gloved hands revealing delicate nuances among the various and rarified works of engineering:

Direct contact with fiberglass or breathing airborne dust containing fiberglass may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, and throat. The symptoms of irritation are often nonspecific, temporary, and may include itching, coughing, or wheezing. HIGH LEVELS OF EXPOSURE TO AIRBORNE FIBERGLASS MAY AGGRAVATE EXISTING ASTHMA OR BRONCHITIS-LIKE CONDITIONS. A RASH CAN APPEAR WHEN FIBERS BECOME EMBEDDED IN THE OUTER LAYER OF THE SKIN. TEMPORARY STOMACH IRRITATION MAY OCCUR IF FIBERS ARE SWALLOWED. FOR THESE REASONS WE MUST INSIST EACH VISITOR DON FULL PPE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRETY OF THEIR TIME IN THE EXHIBIT (ESPECIALLY THE PART WHERE WE RAIN CHOPPED STRAND FROM THE SKY).
